Storage and Insurance
At Jukasa Media Group, we make every effort to keep your data safe during the duration of your project. Because of the possibility of unexpected equipment failures, we advise clients to bring their own hard drives in addition to store and back up their data at the end of every session. Recordings will not be stored long term (90 days +) on our studio hard drives. All mixes, hard drives, masters, etc. will remain the property of Jukasa Media Group until the client pays all invoices in full. Jukasa Media Group may not be held responsible for lost, damaged or destroyed session media.
Payment
Payment must be made in the form of cash, e-transfer, debit, or credit card, and is due at the end of each session. Please note if using a credit card that there is an added 3% charge to offset transaction fees. If you prefer to use a personal cheque, please notify the studio prior to booking a session.
Day of Session
Clients should arrive early for their session, as they will be billed from the agreed upon session start time. If you are unable to make it to your session, please inform us before then or you will forfeit your deposit. Setup time and breaks are also billed at the agreed upon hourly rate.
Blocked Sessions
Blocked sessions are based on 10 hours per day for 2 or more consecutive days.
